There is Safety in Numbers

The Holidays are a time for family, friends, food and making memories. The Holidays are also a time in which we tend to do more cooking and baking than during any other time of the year.

By following simple, easy-to-remember food safety tips, we can all ensure that our at-home holiday feasts are safe from the kitchen to the table.

Always wash your hands with warm water and soap before and after handling food. Keep your kitchen, dishes and utensils clean too. Clean kitchen surfaces with a clean cloth or paper towel.

Take the guesswork out of cooking that holiday roast by using a meat thermometer. Cook foods thoroughly to safe internal temperatures (roast beef to 145 degrees F for medium rare and 160 degrees F and ground poultry to 165 degrees F).

Arrange and serve food on several small platters rather than one large try. Replace empty platters rather than adding fresh food to a dish that has already been used.

Promptly refrigerate and store all leftovers in shallow containers. Most cooked dishes can keep for up to 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Reheat thoroughly to 165 degrees F when food is hot and steaming.

The US Department of Health & Human Services offers up this “Safe Minimum Cooking Temperatures Guide” to help ensure your cooked foods reach a safe and enjoyable temperature.
